Just chucked Sintel onto my NAS and was impressed to see Plex recognises it!
Now I can cry for Scales with ease even if the Internet goes down.

Decided to make a new planet as I've not done that in a good long while. Not started in Blender yet but spent the last couple of hours in Krita putting together a seamless (horizontally) texture.

Edited together some shots from yesterday's walk around Chatelherault Country Park in Hamilton. These were all down by the White Bridge. Beautiful little spot.
Lessons learned:
Take longer shots as editing together short ones is tedious.
Pick somewhere with less hazards

For any MacOS users:
I noticed a huge drop in battery life after the 26 update. Strongly recommend updating to the beta 26.1, seems to have resolved it.

Seen a lot of for and against rows over the new MacOS 26 online. Installed the beta so I could see what camp I fall into.
Turns out, im in the "meh" camp. Looks a bit different, does the same stuff, who cares 🤣

Considering picking up a DJI Mini 4K to get into drone flying.
Figure with all the waiting around I do in scenic locations it'd be a good hobby to pass the time.

Me and the family are gonna try a DnD game.
For my character Ive picked a Warlock with a mischievous and manipulative Archfey as his patron.
Used InvokeAI and Flux 1.D to bring them to life.

There is something not quite right about remoting into a Windows machine from MacOS 🤣
I've converted my workstation to all be powered from a docked MacBook. The monitor, speakers, K&B, etc all plugs into that.
My Windows box is now connected only via ethernet for rendering/AI/remote gaming.

Little day-off project. Modelled and printed a little holder for my laptop dock, usb hub, and audio interface.
The one cable (on the right) powers my laptop as well as connecting my screen, speakers, microphone, keyboard/mouse, and ethernet to it.

Got around to some BeatSaber today, I've been pretty lazy with it since I started working out of the house, but gonna try and fight my way back. Gotta fight off all the roll and sausage I've been eating 🤣
(It's more comical if you imagine me lip syncing to the words and exuding cringe dad vibes.)

What makes VDM different from normal displacement:
Standard displacement moves vertices along the surface normal (up/down).
VDM uses a 3D vector (x, y, z) per pixel, allowing full spatial displacement, so it can create overhangs, folds, etc

I'm about a week into owning a Macbook Air, my first Apple device. I'd previously sworn never to get one but the battery life swayed me given the new job driving coaches... lots of free time out and about.
Gotta say, so far, I'm pretty damn impressed with the thing.

Just setup Flamenco on my Home Lab.
Now I can render from anywhere in the world, on any device that supports Blender, and it'll send the job to my home workstation.

I'm gonna have to expand my little home lab soon I think, got more and more stuff running locally now. Including LLM and Image Gen stuff.
Best part is with Tailscale running on my phone and laptop, I can access it all outside of the house without exposing it via the the router.
I love this crap :)

Using LoRA's with Flux is amazing. You can generate multiple images with the character largely staying consistent.
In this example of Taylor Momsen as an Aracane character I used two, one for Taylor that I made myself and one trained on Jinx that I downloaded.
